Microsoft Planning To Stream Xbox 360 and Xbox One Games to Windows PCs

[Munkeh111]

I'm a bit confused by this. So basically this is local remote play? [not that I've got remote play to work more than 30 feet from my PS4...]

So I have my Xbox One by the TV and decide to go and play in my room on my desktop? So I guess you have the advantage of a proper controller and a bigger screen, but it's more difficult to play on your lap while watching "real television" (especially as you're meant to be doing that through the Xbox one aren't you?)

I think it would be a much bigger deal if it could stream to tablets too. Maybe it will work with the Surface 3, since that is basically a laptop, but it would be better if it could stream to all

Anyway, I think it's a decent idea, but a good way to keep up with Sony. Personally, starting up a PC doesn't quite have the convenience of a Vita, especially as I like to use it to play in front of the TV while I'm watching something like cricket. I also have a gaming PC, so if I'm sitting in front of my PC playing an Xbox One game, maybe I'd be better off playing it directly on my PC?
